12Now if Christ is preached that he hath been raised from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither hath Christ been raised:
14and if Christ hath not been raised, then is our preaching vain, your faith also is vain.
15Yea, we are found false witnesses of God; because we witnessed of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead are not raised.
16For if the dead are not raised, neither hath Christ been raised:
17and if Christ hath not been raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
18Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
